Death in Blackpool was the first release of the fourth series of Eighth Doctor Adventures. Even thought she would make an appearance in five more stories, this story marked the end of Lucie Miller's travels aboard the TARDIS, and also closed the "Aunty Pat" story-arc.

Lucie Miller always loved Christmas back home in Blackpool. Her Mum running a still-frozen turkey under the hot tap at ten. Great-Grandma Miller half-cut on cooking sherry by eleven. Her Dad and her uncle arguing hammer and tongs about who was the best James Bond all through dinner. And in the afternoon, Aunty Pat, haring up to the house on the back of a moped weighed down with ridiculous presents.

There is some confusion as to the timeline placement of this story. The Publisher's Summary gives a year of 2009. Within the story, the Lucie Miller of that time, not having yet met the Doctor, is present when the "current" Lucie and the Doctor arrive. However, Lucie's introductory story, AUDIO: Blood of the Daleks establishes she originally hailed from 2006.
